To aZZ whom it may concern.-

Be it known that I, FREDERICK V. WINTERS, a citizen of the United States of America, residing in New York city, in the State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Water-Heaters for Stand- Boilers, of which the following is a specification.

My invention has relation to improvements indevices for heating the water in standboilers in instances where the fire is not burning in the stove or range and it-is desirable to heat the water in the boiler for immediate uses; and the object is to provide an improved heater for the purposes named which is simple and strong in construction and expeditious and efficient in use.

I have fully and clearly illustrated the invention in the accompanying drawings, to be taken as part of this specification, and where- 1n- Figure 1 is a view in elevation of the device arranged in operative connection with a standboiler. Fig. 2 is a horizontal plan view of my improved heater with the cover removed. Fig. 3 is a longitudinal central section through the heater.

A designates a stand-boiler of any approved construction provided with the usual coldwater pipe 1, leading to the water-back of the stove, range, or furnace, (not shown,) and the return hot-water feed-pipe 2. In the return hot-water feed-pipe 2 is interposed my improved heater B. This heater 13 consists of a strong body of suitable metal, comparatively fiat in vertical direction and of extended superficial area and circular in horizontal cross-section, substantially as shown, and formed with an integral inlet-pipe section or nipple 3, leading into the reservoir and adapted to connect with the hot-water feed pipe from the Water back, and also formed with a standing or vertical outlet-pipe 4, the upper end of which is connected with the section of the hot-water pipe opening into the boiler, substantially as shown in the draw- In the body of the heater is formed a shallow reservoir 5, extending well over the area of the disk-shaped body, and in the bottom of the reservoir are formed a plurality of water sockets or tubes 8,interspersed throughout the bottom and extending outside of the shell for a sufficient distance forming independent projecting tubes with closed lower ends, as seen in the drawings. The upper part of the bodyis formed with straight parallel sides 5 5", extending across the body and formed with groovesor inclined inward to take in and hold the detachable cover 6, which is additionally secured by means of bolts or screws '7, the cover being made detachablein order that it may be removed and the reservoir cleaned when necessary.

The use of the heater is apparent. All that is necessary is to set a lamp under it or preferably apply a small gas stove or jet thereto,

. when, owing to the extended shallow or thin body of Water in the reservoir and its disposition in the tubes, the water is speedily heated and a circulation set up ina well-known manner.

What I claim is- 1. The combination with a stand-boiler and the hot-water feed-pipe thereof a heater interposed in the hot-water feed-pipe, comprising a body formed with a fiat shallow reservoir of extended superficial area, and a plurality of vertically-depending water-sockets in the bottom plate of the reservoir, and a detachable cover over the reservoir, substantially as and for the purpose specified.

2. The combination with a stand-boiler and the hot-water feed-pipe thereof, of a heater interposed in the hot-water feed-pipe, comprising a body formed with a fiat shallow reservoir of extended superficial area, and a plurality of vertically-depending water sockets or tubes in the bottom plate of the reservoir, an inlet-pipe nipple opening into the reservoir and a hot-water outlet-pipe nipple vertically rising from the body opposite to the inlet, substantially as and for the purpose specified.

3. The combination with a stand-boiler and the hot-water feed-pipe thereof, of a heater interposed in the hot-water feed-pipe, comprising a disk-shaped body formed with a flat In witness whereof I have hereto set my shallow reservoirandapluralityof vel'ticallyhand in the presence of two attesting witdepending Water sockets or tubes in the botnesses.

tom, and parallel flanges extending across the FREDERICK V. WVINTERS. top of the body, a removable cover the side Attest:

edges of which engage in said flanges, and A. G. HEYLMUN,

fastening-bolts in the ends of the cover. JNo. A. YORK.
